IMHO Blue, Chrome, or black are the coolest colors for a case

Yellow and Blue. They contrast just enough to give it that schweet look, and make it really easy to see buttons and stuuf

That's odd... FOr all the people talking about yellow, it only has two votes....

I voted for black, but blue or aluminum seems nice.
I love carbon fiber though. I want to build a case out of that stuff someday.

Good luck!!! You're talking thousands upon thousands of dollars (for producing only one). You can't just buy carbon fiber and cut it up.
But in theory, a carbon fiber case would be beyond pimp. The top and bottom of the front bezel on my Lian-Li have a carbon fiber look to them....it looks SO sweet.

Thousands? I bought a carbon fiber strut for my RC car to stiffen the chassis. It wasn't that expensive, like $15. Why not just buy a few sheets of the stuff and build a case from there?

Well, I'm saying if you had a complete case made for yourself. Meaning totally designed and built as a computer case, not just separate sheets of carbon fiber glued together.
Plus that RC car part is mass produced. I was figuring in the cost of tooling and stuff for building only one case.
Mass producing carbon fiber cases would be the only "cheap" way of doing it, without resorting to building one yourself. Remember, you can't cut carbon fiber.....it'll look really messy since it's totally different than from working with metals.

Beige would be my vote. You can "easily" change the color of a case, but the design of the case is what really matters (and is usually much harder to change).

I had to go with black because it matches the speakers and it is easy to find drives that are black.

I voted silver as thats the closest choice to the aluminum of my Lian Li, I choose blue for the inside as mine came with a blue cathode.
I couldnt do chrome, the fingerprints and dust would show up instantly and I'd never get a chance to use the computer with all that polishing(Maybe thats why they fazed out chrome car bumpers.........)
